FIELD ENGINEER INSTRUCTIONS

WHAT STATE SHOULD THE SYSTEM BE IN TO BE READY TO PERFORM THE RESOLUTION ACTIVITY? :

Before You Begin
You do not have to power off the server to service the fan modules.
You should not begin this procedure unless you have a replacement fan and you are ready to install it right away.

1. Extend the server to the maintenance position.

2.  To access the fan modules, open the server fan door

Caution -
Close the server fan door within 60 seconds to maintain adequate airflow to properly cool the server. Leaving the door open for more than 60 seconds, while the server is running, might cause the server to overheat and shut down

3. Identify the faulty fan module. Each fan module has a status indicator (LED). If the LED is off, the fan is good. If the LED is lit amber, the fan has failed.

4. Remove the faulty fan module.
    a.Using your thumb and forefinger, grasp the fan module in the finger
        recesses located in the plastic between the fans.
    b.  Lift the fan module straight up and out of the chassis.

Caution -
When removing a fan module, do not rock it back and forth. Rocking a fan module can cause damage to the motherboard connectors.

5  Set the fan module aside.

Caution -
Do not service any other components in the fan compartment unless the system is shut down and the power cords are removed.

Install a Fan Module
1. Remove the replacement fan module from its packaging and place it on an antistatic mat.
2. With the fan door open, position the replacement fan module into the server. The fan modules are keyed to ensure that they are installed in the correct orientation.
3. Press down on the fan module and apply firm pressure to fully seat the fan module.
4. Verify that the fan module status indicator (LED) that aligns with the replaced fan module is extinguished.
5. Close the fan door.
6. Verify that the Top Fan Fault LED on the front of the server and the Service Required LEDs on the front and rear of the server are extinguished.
